Introduction

The photograph on this page of Clipstone Colliery headstocks by Richard Croft as part of the Geograph project.

The Geograph project started in 2005 with the aim of publishing, organising and preserving representative images for every square kilometre of Great Britain, Ireland and the Isle of Man.

There are currently over 7.5m images from over 14,400 individuals and you can help contribute to the project by visiting https://www.geograph.org.uk

The pit closed in 2003 but the grade II listed headstocks (considered to be the tallest in Europe) remain with an uncertain future as they're of no use and costly to maintain.
